William S. Youngman, a Harvard graduate who was approved for transfer to Theodore Roosevelt’s regiment but never served on the front, shares his admiration for Roosevelt. Youngman also encloses an article that connects Roosevelt to solicitations for the order of the Moose, which Youngman is sure is being done with Roosevelt’s knowledge and could injure Roosevelt’s reputation.
